Japan with Kids: TOP 10 Kyoto Attractions | Japan Family Holiday
Uncover 10 of the best attractions in Kyoto with kids, from themed Edo-period museums to Samurai experiences and breathtaking temple complexes - this is one city that will forever steal your hearts.
After our first visit, Kyoto has become one of our favourite cities in the world - combining history, culture, to-die-for-food, and, of course, amazingly friendly locals.
We've compiled this handy guide for your Japan family holiday so that you can determine which places are best suited for your travels. The main attraction in Kyoto is, obviously, all the stunning temples. From Kinkakuji to the Inari Shrine, you'll spend a good few days just exploring all the temple complexes in the city. We also visited the Kyoto Railway Museum (see link below for our insider guide) which was an absolute hit with our kids, rented a bicycle and rode to Arashiyama to see the Monkey Park and bamboo grove which was the number one Kyoto highlight for us. The best way of getting around in Japan with kids is to rent a bicycle, as most rental shops offer child seats that come with the bikes. It makes getting around so much more pleasant and less strenuous.
But, by all means, don't forget to roam through Kyoto Station - hands down, one of the best train stations we have ever seen. Packed with eateries, shops, activities and viewing platforms - we spent a good 3 hours exploring this gigantic station.
Kyoto, undoubtedly, needs to be on the itinerary for your Japan family vacation. Even when you and the kids have had enough of temples, there's so many other sights and activities to experience that the whole family will enjoy.
So, if you're visiting Japan with kids, try and squeeze some of these attractions in (if not, all) - the only regret we had was not booking a longer holiday to see, eat and do more.

I’m Dan and this is Kyoto.
I'm going to let you in on a secret… Kyoto is my favourite place in Japan.
Its 17 UNESCO world heritage sites, made up of temples, shrines and gardens are everything I wanted to Japan to be. Traditional... beautiful... peaceful.
But what gives Kyoto its understated edge is the blend of old and new. Sitting alongside the ryokan, pagodas and kagai flower streets is a modern city that may not have the buzz and general craziness of neon neighbour Tokyo, but I think it’s the perfect introduction for your first time in Japan.
As you can see, Kyoto is a pretty awesome place, and for me it’s probably one of the most unique destinations I’ve ever been to. So, let’s take a look at how I got here.
Flights from the UK will arrive at Osaka Kansai International airport 60 miles south of Kyoto. From here you can take one of Japan’s super-efficient trains into the city or hop on the Airport Limousine bus.
The JR Haruka Express takes 75 minutes to Kyoto Station, stopping at Shin-Osaka along the way. My one-way ticket cost 1,880¥.
The Limousine Bus departs from the first floor of both terminals and takes 90 minutes to reach Kyoto Station, after which it makes several further stops across town. If one of these stops is near your hotel, the bus may end up being quicker than the train, so check their online timetable before making your journey.
If you hold a British passport you will not need a visa to enter Japan and can stay for up to 90 days as a tourist. You’ll need to fill out a landing card when you arrive and may need proof that your departure flight is booked.
When it comes to discovering new cities, I am a massive advocate of getting the bus. Why? Because it’s a great way to do some cheap sightseeing, and in Kyoto it’s also a particularly good option and here’s why.
Somewhat surprisingly for Japan, Kyoto does not have an extensive subway network. Yes, there is a metro, but we found that when visiting Kyoto’s tourist sites it generally worked out quicker to get the bus. And like I said, you get to really see the city.
When boarding, get on at the back and off at the front. Kyoto buses have a single flat fare of 230¥ that you must pay as you get off. The driver will not have change, so make sure you have the exact money when buying a single. However, I recommend doing what I did and picking up a 24-hour pass for 500¥.
I picked mine up from one of those vending machines right there, which are outside Kyoto train station, which is super nifty because as you can see, the buses are right there. As for navigation, get your data sorted and use Google Maps, it’s as reliable as ever in Kyoto. Alternatively, you can use the Arukumachi Kyoto route planner app, which is free on iOS and Android.
Up next, my top tips for Kyoto’s surprisingly busy tourist hotspots.
First up is Kyoto’s old town, Gion. This is the place to go for traditional Japan and my personal favourite; if you're a fan of Memoirs of a Geisha and all things historical and cultural, while topping up your Instagram feed, this is an absolute must-visit, though it can get rather busy...
Kinkaku-ji, or the Golden Pavilion, is you guessed it, covered in gold. According to local custom the gold plating will purify negative energy. The temple itself is stunning although there isn’t a whole lot else to do here once you’ve got the obligatory photo. My top tip for visiting this popular tourist attraction: go early to avoid the crowds and then move on to my personal favourite, Ginkaku-ji, or the Silver Temple..
OBAMA The City in Japan | Best Places To Visit In Japan 2020
The best highlights of OBAMA city in west coast of Japan on Wakasa gulf. Not many people visit here because have no idea such a beautiful place but once you arrived you have over 10 attractions to experience. The most important is making your own chopsticks, trying the local sushi and every year 2nd of March there is the most famous festival called Omizuokuri.

Making Chopsticks & Trying Preserved Fish in Obama City | Foodie Road Trip Part 1
Check out the Tsukiji street food video with Shizuka & Leina:
Come along as Shizuka Anderson and Leina Bambino discover Obama, Fukui Prefecture, on their foodie road trip in Japan!
They stroll through Sancho-machi, taste kareyaki (a type of curry bread) at AKAO Curry Cake & Cake Shop, and visit Miketsukuni Wakasa Obama Food Culture Museum. There, they learn how Wakasa-nuri, a special type of lacquered chopsticks are made, and get hands-on with the chopstick-making process.
Then, Shizuka and Leina see how heshiko (a type of preserved fish) is made by first pickling it in salt and then again in rice bran (called “nuka”). Lastly, they taste the finished product at a famous inn in Obama City called Minshuku Sasuke.
